My eyes close
Hands clutch at nothing
Heart flying to my throat
I'm ripping apart
And I can't see
It’s not real
That’s all I can say to keep control
Who’s screaming?
Me?
I hadn't noticed till now
But I was, loudly
Why? That all I want to ask
All I want to do is scream.
Sinking, falling
All alone
One question
I can’t find the answer in all the darkness,
Why me?
Silence.
Hands clutch at nothing
Heart flying to my throat
I'm ripping apart
And I can't see
It’s not real
That’s all I can say to keep control
Who’s screaming?
Me?
I hadn't noticed till now
But I was, loudly
Why? That all I want to ask
All I want to do is scream.
Sinking, falling
All alone
One question
I can’t find the answer in all the darkness,
Why me?
Silence.

wow! this poem really grabbed me to the point where i am physically into it as well as metally and emotionsaally. i love your idea for your paper. and i cant wait to be it done!
This poem is deep. You used some great metaphors and some of the images were very visual. Also, when you used questions like Why me? or whos screaming? those were great attention getters. Excellent, really.
this is good! it freaked me out! i liked how you asked the reader rhetorical questions and described what was happening in a sublime way. i loved it!
